Hi...I am researching my own family in Tipperary, Ireland but am stuck in a rut at the moment with them so I thought I would try and help some kind folk on this out if they have ancestors in Tipperary. :D. The names I am researching myself are; Ryan, Sullivan, Kevin, Dwyer, Woodlock and a few others.
So if anyone needs some help..don't hesitate to ask.
Regards,
Ann Marie

Hi Annie,
I have in my family tree, the name of Dwyer in the parish of Ballyporeen, co.Tipperary - they are connected to my Bailey line via a marriage between Kate Fitzgerald , whose first cousin was Hannie Dwyer who married a Cunningham.
All in the townlands of Skeheenarinka/Coolagarranroe - so if any bells ring with you, please get in touch!
Many thanks,
Mags

Unfortunately I don't have any rellies living or dead down in Ballyporeen. All my Dwyers are buried in Thurles or nearby graveyards. Sorry I could be anymore help to you

Ok, thank you for replying though.

Hi Ann Marie,
Just saw your post and wondered if you might be able to help me.
My Gt Grandmother, Hannah Carroll shows on the 1891 UK Census as being born in Tipperary.
Her marriage cert shows her marrying my Gt Grandfather, John Jones (a Soldier), 8 Sept 1885 in Fermoy, Co Cork.
It also names her father as Martin Carroll, Farmer.
(Possibly living around Templemore because that's were my Gt Grandad was staying, prior to moving to Fermoy in 1885).
So I've been trying for ages to trace the birth of a Hannah Carroll, father Martin Carroll, and born between 1864 & 1869.
I've paid a lot for research but no luck, maybe you can help me?
I'd appreciate any help please.
Barbara.

Hi Ann Marie,
I have an Ellen Shannon/Shanahan married to James Gleeson. As far as i can tell most if not all of their children were born in Co Kildare. However on the 1901 census Ellen is showing as born in Co Tipperary. I have no other information and no record of their marriage.
It is a long shot but if you can maybe find anything about Ellen and James i would be really grateful.

Hi Ann Marie,
I've just started researching my O'Farrell name and I have only a few details from an elderly relative. A Thomas Joseph O'Farrell was born around 1892 near Roscrea his father's name was Edward and mother was Mary Ellen. There was a large number of children a lot of whom went to America. I understand the family owned a farm called 'Beha Glos' near Roscrea and the grandparents (Michael & Mary) are buried in a churchyard in a tiny village sounding like ' Cooraganeen'. If you can help at all or at least point this novice (particulalry on the Irish side !) in the right direction I would be very grateful.
Kind Regards,
Jo

{Post modified after the 1911 census came online}
Hi Ann Marie,
Any chance of a check in the 1901 Cahir, Co.Tipp census results? You may be able to save me waiting till the 1901 census records come online - I'm in SE Asia!.
I have a Browne (or Brown) family from Caher (Cahir) Co. Tipperary. From passenger lists and research on the American side, we're fairly certain that we have four siblings {Amended: the fifth, Michael (born c1870) was already in America in 1901, so he won't be in the census} who all emigrated to America between 1901 and 1904, and were all living in Caher before emigrating. They are:
Norah (born c1877)
Catherine (born c1881)
Patrick (born c1884)
Richard (born c1887)
The 1911 census has only one Brown[e] family in the Caher DED (Townland/Street = Church St), the mother being a widow.
Could you check if the family were in the same townland/street in 1901?
Are there possible matches for any of the people above?
Was the father alive and present? (We're hoping for the name John, but I think it's unlikely)
Failing that (and in the unlikely event that you've got nothing better to do! ;) ) are there any other Brown[e] families in the Caher DED with any of the above people, or a father born before 1860 by the name of John?
Fingers crossed!

Hi Ann-Marie
Many thanks for your kind offer.
Assuming it's the 1901 or 1911 census you're referring to, then perhaps you can help with my grandmother Catherine Mahony. She was born in December 1888 in Nenagh Co.Tipperary - address look like Spout Road on her birth certificate.
I've found her on the England census in April 1911 in England and she then lived and died in England. In 1911, she was living with her married sister Mary Ann (known as Minnie) O'Mara (formerly Mahony) who was born in Lisboney (?) Nenagh in August 1885 (I have her birth certificate). Her husband was James O'Mara who, according to 1911 census, was born in Nenagh about 1886.
I can't find her (or her sister) in England on 1891 or 1901 census and don't know when she moved to England. I am keen to know if she, her sister or parents were on 1901 census in Ireland.
Her father was David Mahony, shown as deceased in 1911 on Catherine's marriage certificate but I don't know when he died. Her mother was Mary Barrett who married David Mahony in 1884 in Catholic Chapel in Nenagh.
I would be very grateful for any information you can find.
Kind regards ... Malcolm

Good news - the 1911 Irish Census returns for Tipperary (and ALL Irish counties) are now online at the National Archives Of Ireland website. Tipperary is at http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Tipperary/.
Completely free, and you get to see the original, handwritten returns.
Happy hunting,
Pete
{Ann Marie: My previous information request in this thread has been modified based on new information from the 1911 census}
-
Brilliant, thanks Pete, I found the grandfather and Great grandparents within minutes. The Irish 1911 census is also much better than the English ones with far more details particularly about the houses they lived in.
-
Hi Ann Marie, if the offer is still open, can you find any information about my grandfather John Maher who was born Thurles 1878 Tipperary.
He had a sister Johanna Maher born 1874 Thurles.
His mother was Johanna Maher nee Connell.
I believe this is her christening record.
Joanna Connell
Aug 1845 Roman Catholic Dromtarriff Cork Ireland.
Father John Connell Mother Catherine Curran ( IGI )
The father of John Maher was also same name John Maher.
John SNR was a Quarryman.
I was told after John SNR died ( both his children were very young His Widow Johanna had to leave Ireland because she could not support her children.
She came to Liverpool and was mentioned on 1881 census.
Therefore John Snr may have died 1878-1881.
Can you find any information relating to this family please.

Hey Ann Marie,
if the offer's still going I have one or two things I'm looking for in Tipp :)
Firstly, I'm looking for a marriage between a Thomas Treacy and Ann Waters. I have no date of birth for either. The first child of theirs I could find was James in 1864 so I presume they would of married within a few years of that date. On that baptism cert, the address is down as Cooraclevin, Dunkerrin? But I think later on they were based around Ballingarry.
If you could find a birth cert for Thomas or Ann that would be amazing too.
Secondly, I'm looking for a birth cert for Timothy Killackey around 1846. His father should be a Daniel or Donal Killackey (as far as I'm aware). They would have lived close to Cloughjordan and surrounding areas. I've heard some of the family even stretched to Shinrone (practically in Offaly)
Thanks very much :)

Hello,
I would like to respond to your generous offer to look for family in Tipperary. My search dates from 1859 back to the early 1800's I suspect. I am in the USA so do not have resources on local history books which could probably help me. Please let me know if you think there is anything helpful for me in this time period.
I have Hanora 'Nora' Craig who was born 1863 at Lower Garraun, Ballinahinch to John Craig and Bridget Flynn. They were married 1859 same location; John born abt 1838 at Borrisokane, appears to be the son of James Craig and Bridget McNamara and Bridget Flynn born 1839 Borrisokane appears to be the daughter of John Flynn and Ellen McDonald.
Are there any census or historical records that might tell me more about John Craig and his parents/family and about Bridgett Flynn and her parents/family?
Thank you for any help or advice. Nancie inTexas USA

hello Annie, I'm new to this chat stuff so bear with me! my husband's family have roots in Tipperary.
His gt grandmother Elizabeth Begley was born in Cahir in 1867, her father John was a soldier in the Hampshire regiment.
John was baptised on 15 April 1842 in Nenagh - father Thomas Begly and mother Nancy Cummins. God parents William and Betty Begley.
John married Mary O'Donaghue probably around 1860 in Ireland I think - both very young and unusual for a soldier. I have looked at military BMD and have found a Mary Begley b in Athlone in 1862 - no further traces in UK censuses for this family. next child born in Shanghai and John spent most of his army career in India. Any leads on his marriage or ancestry or that of his wife appreciated.

Hello,
I've been searching for info on my GGG Aunt Mary Catherine Gleason, b.1872 possibly in Tipperary. Her father was Patrick Gleason b. 1845, location unknown & is buried in Fermanagh, Drumully Parish, around 1926. I have no other info on Mary Catherine's parents.
She immigrated to America when she was 13 yrs. old & died in Oregon in Dec. 1920. I've requested a Death Cert. from the tiny community she lived in (Her first husband Peter Spiering died)
but I couldn't provide her new husbands last name.
I'd sure appreciate any help you can offer. Thank You, Shari

Hi Nancie (raggdollynmb),
Unfortunately there don't appear to be any civil records for Co. Tipperary until 1864, so you're probably stuck with the church records.
Availablity of church records depends on denomination - RC or CofI. Some Co Tipperary church records (RC and CofI) are available online (unfortunately not for free) at http://tipperarynorth.brsgenealogy.com/generic.php?filename=sources.tpl&selectedMenu=showdatabase.
I assume your families are RC as I've found likely matches for the information you've given:
- 1859 Ballinahinch RC marriage record for your John Craig / Bridget Flynn
- 1863 Ballinahinch RC birth record for Honora (with an O) Craig
- 1838 Borrisokane RC birth record for John Craige (with an E)
- 1839 Borrisokane RC birth record for Bridget Flynn
They also appear to have an 1838 Borrisokane marriage record for John Flynn and Ellen McDonald, which may be a new lead for you.
(I can't find any likely James Craig/Bridget McNamara marriage records though)
Pete
P.S. In case you haven't pinpointed the locations you mention:
Ballynahinch is near the Tipperary/Clare/Limerick border here http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=ballynahinch&sll=52.756867,-8.368492&sspn=0.049867,0.15295&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Ballynahinch,+County+Tipperary,+Ireland&ll=52.763723,-8.396988&spn=0.199436,0.611801&z=11

To everybody who's posted to this topic,
I think Annie intended to close this topic as suggested in Dara's (Oaks And Acorns) post of 23rd October (that's the purpose of the "Completed:" at the start of her last two messages).
Here's some useful links (from my earlier posts) that may help you with your Tipperary research
1911 Tipperary Census online (free) at:
National Archives Of Ireland - http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/ (I'm glad you found that link useful AISLINN)
Other Tipperary records (Civil BMD, RC, and CofI - free search, but pay to view transcribed records) online at the IFHF websites:
Co. Tipperary (north) - http://tipperarynorth.brsgenealogy.com/
Co. Tipperary (south) - http://tipperarysouth.brsgenealogy.com/
Happy hunting,
Pete
P.S. Annie, I think you're meant to put the "Completed" on the FIRST entry in the topic (see http://www.rootschat.com/help/faqs.php#completed ) to close a topic.
Good luck at college!
